Parent Handbook for
Happy Valley School
Welcome Parents!
We are honored to serve you and your families, and thank you for entrusting the education of your children to us. Your children are truly a blessing. As we walk along the road into the future with our students, the Board, Administration and Staff want to partner with you in building strong character, outstanding academic skills, responsibility and success in these future leaders of our world.
Community Relations
It is important to us that we work in
harmony with families, keeping an open line of communication. Our desire is
to develop a relationship of mutual trust and cooperation between home and
school.
If questions or problems arise, we
ask that parents go directly to the staff member involved first, to gather
pertinent information; then, review and discuss all of the relevant issues.
The administration is always open to listening and helping solve problems.
Discussing problems with those directly involved is more likely to benefit
everyone than complaining to third parties who cannot help resolve the
situation.
Together, we should be able to gain an understanding of almost any problem and reach a favorable solution—thereby avoiding suspicion and mistrust. Staff members are expected to set a good example by handling student and family concerns with respect, discretion and impartiality.
Rules, Rules, Rules
All of the policies and rules adopted by the school are based upon safety, compliance with state and federal laws, and the fulfillment of our goals and responsibilities in educating your children. Therefore, we ask that parents and students familiarize themselves with, and abide by, campus policies so that we may all be successful in our efforts to maintain a safe, healthy and productive educational environment.
